Make your own Mii, without a Wii
A few people have asked me how I made my blog header, so I thought I would share my secret. Okay, it's not a secret at all. I can't draw, and I didn't do anything particularly clever to come up with those cute cartoon faces of my family.
As you might know, I love our Wii. I've "invested" more hours than I care to admit, honing my Wii bowling skills, and am now the proud user of a super-sparkly "Pro" ball.
But maybe you don't have a Wii, and you have no idea what a Mii is? Well, a Mii is just a Wii avatar. And you can make one, even if you don't have a Wii. I've used a couple of online Mii creators, but my favorite is this one. [EDIT: As of April 11, 2008, I found that this site is no longer active. Here is another Mii creator for you to try.]
It is very easy to use, and you can create your own mini-Mii (or mini-you) in just minutes. When you're finished, you can save the source file and re-load it later to make changes. Or, download your image to your computer (you choose the size and format), and use it as you like.
You can see my own Mii family in my blog header, and here is one I made of Harry Potter, just for fun. If you make a Mii you'd like to share, please leave the location in your comment! Have fun!

Harry Potter is cuter than that, but I do like the idea of making a Mii without using my Wii. =o)
Christy’s last blog post..Does the Kawaii Comic fall under “geek”
Yes, I agree Harry is cuter than that. And have you seen Daniel Radcliffe’s grown up photos? oh my! But this is Harry’s quiet, thoughtful look, I guess.
I like the header - it just goes to show you don’t need to be an artist to be creative!
